Check out this thread

Go through the "connection probs - check here first" link too... it's got heaps of info about connection/firewall probs.
Don't use 2 software firewalls. Pick 1, configure it for LW & disable the other one. If you tried manually port forwarding, did you set up a static IP address first? Were you using instructions from this site?

If you're still stuck, post back with your details

OS(Win XP etc)
LW & Java version (help > about LW & you'll see)
Firewall you're using
Modem/router brand & model
ISP
Connection type (DSL etc)
Where you connect from (home, school etc)
Are you sharing a connection with other computers
Is this your first try with LW
